Future Tigers: 23rd Fighter Group F-35As while placed in the "what if" section in 2025, the gist of this mod will become a reality as the 23rd FG at Moody AFB, Georgia is slated to recieve F-35s by 2029.

How many of you fly USAF F-35As with regularity?
daddyairplanes replied to daddyairplanes's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
yeah, rescue marks take one up already on the A. hell, i decided to put the shark mouth for the Flying Tigers on the skin instead of decalling it. now cant help but wonder if it would have come out warped like that "MARINES" -

much as the title states. there's not alot of skins for the USAF out there despite there being 15 non training units out there, with another 6 hard identified as gaining 35s in the next few years. -

biggest thing is are you interested? as im scrubbing serials, it seems that almost all the skins we have so far are for pre COVID era serial wise, and i noticed practically none seem to have the unit tail bands. which is what got my interest going as well as noticing that the non ACC units are getting progressivly more ornate tails -

hell, im toying with just the skins. not sure i want to dig deep into the ini's. not to mention im not a practitioner of the dark art of flight modeling that said, i am going thru online and scrubbing serials for units from 2019 onward. theres currrently about 21 squadrons id'd between now and 2030, of which 8 have yet to get jets. 5 already have skins but from at least 3-4 years ago and some serials are changing (looking at 388th FW) i probably will wind up doing a skin pack, i just dont want to admit it right now -

theres a few (but yes very few) opfor aircraft for it to square off against, in particular Chinese jets.anytime a Su-57 goes public round here, it seems to be the work of a Felon (pun very much intended) Allen, the Liberty Wing now has two stealth squadrons, the 93rd retired its Eagles and gained -35s. the 492d and 494th still fly Mud Hens overall, checking the waters here. havent fully made up my mind one way or another yet, the Flying Tigers were meant as a brief side project. not the start of another rabbit hole (although much shallower this one is) -
